While there are a number of programs that automatically save copies of documents as they are being worked on, this is far from being the norm. You may have spent hours typing out a lengthy document only to suffer a system crash or power failure that wipes out all of your hard work.

ForeverSave Lite is a tool that could save your bacon - and your files. There are a huge number of backup tools available for OS X, but this is one with a difference - it is only concerned with saving open documents.

You're guided through the process of configuring ForeverSave Lite for individual applications, and once this has been done, all of your work will be protected. All open documents can be saved in one fell swoop with a single key stroke, but automatic saving on a schedule is also available.

Foreversave Lite is a cut down version of ForeverSave, but it is still an incredible useful tool. With the ability to automatically save documents every few seconds, the application provides great disaster preparation.
